A familiar story in education
Rohan enrolled. Now fee dates, batch changes and parent questions arrive every week, and each answer shapes whether his younger sister joins next year.
After the sale, the same questions arrive on WhatsApp every day, often after office hours.
How WhatsApp Support changes it
The WhatsApp bot answers from your own documents 24x7 and hands complex cases to a person.
For coaching institutes, colleges and edtech teams, it is set up around three jobs. For student helpdesk, the bot answers from your documents and hands over when needed. The same flow covers admission queries and parent support, each with its own script and rules.
